We are a small farm using regenerative practices and permaculture ethics. We are still early on in our journey of working with the land. Our land has been part of our family's homestead for close to one hundred years.
Enjoy walks around the farm where you'll find many places to relax, meditate or simply enjoy the views. Guided tours can be arranged and you can explore the gardens, orchard, different methods of raising chickens.
We're always building and trying new things to optimize our property and care for the land.
There are many great restaurants only 20 minutes away including Mexican, Thai, a brew pub, a winery and a great coffee shop.

WINERIES, BREWERIES AND RESTAURANTS RIGHT DOWN THE STREET!
Were right outside of the heartbeat of Indianapolis with about a 15 min drive to reach the city, and just a couple min off of I-69 in a friendly and safe (2 doors down from the new Police station) residential farm area. Its about a 4 min drive to Center Grove, Mallow Run Winery (free tastings!), Taxman Brewery and amazing downtown Bargersville (check out Pizza and Libations, UpCellar, Coffeehouse Five or the Farmers Market on Wed evenings). Soccer and Football fields are also just a couple min walk from your camper.
Miles of paved biking/walking paths connect to our property. Golfing at Hickory Stick golf course is just a few doors down or head down the street to Kephart Park for some pickleball or splash pad fun for the kids. Fishing on property is available anytime at our pond stocked with Bass, Catfish, Redear, and Sunfish. Bring your gear and fish your heart out!
The camping space is located right in front of our brand-new pole barn on 10 acres, your site will feature a nice grassy area with a few apple and pear trees. Feel free to grab a few fresh snacks off a tree if the fruit is in season. Views to the S/SW capture amazing sunset views of the Bargersville Watertower.
30Amp Electricity and Water hookup is available right at your campsite.
46feet max length for your rig/trailer. Additional vehicle parking available next to your site.

This is our second time staying at Kurt’s this year. We will be back next Spring for sure. This site is private and quiet. Kurt has thought of everything. You can tell that he is a camper by the way that the site is designed. The site is easy to back into. The sewer, water and electric hookups are perfectly placed and easy to use. Kurt’s property is beautiful. Can’t wait to come back.

Off beaten path but still convenient. Easy access with electric, water, septic. Had a nice picnic table, fire pit & plenty of complimentary firewood.
Kurt was friendly but not ‘hovering’.
The location put us close enough to Purdue U for events but far enough to still be peaceful.
We will definitely stay again.

We enjoyed a relaxing and quiet weekend on this amazing property with plenty of privacy. The surrounding farmland was beautiful. Nice level site with easy in and easy out access. Kurt was a friendly and accommodating host. We look forward to returning.

This was our first HipCamp experience and we were not dissapointed. Kurt's property is beautiful; located far enough from town there is no light polution, so the stars were stunning. The campsite is thoughtfully located for extremely easy access and can accommodate any size rig. Kurt was a wonderful host, greeted us and offered to be available by text. He provided firewood! This spot offered us the seclusion and peace we wanted and we highly recommend staying here. Three days felt like a week to us, without the distractions of a noisy campground; just peacefulness.

Beautiful quiet open space in the country. A great place to stay, hosts super sweet and accommodating. When you're camping and road tripping and choose to dip into cities from time to time, it's hard to find a campsite that isn't on a highway/big rv park etc. And finding this gem just outside of the city was perfect. Big moon and great open sky. Recommend!

Fantastic host, fantastic spot for me. Close enough to services I needed access to. Close to the road, but super quiet in the evenings.

We weren’t sure what to expect from our first HipCamp experience, but we were pleasantly surprised. Kurt was a great host and we had everything we needed- even a generator when an u expected storm knocked out power.
We will definitely stay there again!

Kurt is absolutely welcoming and accommodating. Often times when we go to State Parks and some Hip Camps we feel like we are more of a bother than a guest. This was the exact opposite with Kurt. He greeted us when we arrived but gave us our space. He accommodated us when we had a couple of special requests. Kurt’s property is absolutely stunning. As far as the site itself, he thought of everything from making sure that the approach to the site makes for an easy back in and departure. The electrical, water, and sewer connections are new and placed perfectly for most RV’s. The pad is a well packed, level gravel pad that handled rain like it never happened. We will stay with Kurt again. Thanks Kurt!
